Archbishop McNicholas High School promotes a Christ-centered, Catholic community that embraces each student spiritually, intellectually, morally, and physically. We provide a safe, nurturing, creative, and challenging campus where individuals will grow in knowledge and faith. We equip our students with opportunities and experiences that will enable them to achieve excellence, live out gospel values, and attain full stature in Christ.

Campus Ministry at Archbishop McNicholas High School invites all students, faculty, and staff to become actively involved in helping to bring alive the Spirit of Christ in our community. At McNicholas, we do this through experiences and opportunities in three main areas of ministry: liturgical and sacramental life, faith building and retreats, and by serving God through serving others.

McNicholas High School helps students of all abilities to achieve excellence. Our personalized registration and class selection process allows students and parents to select course levels appropriate to a student’s ability in each subject area.

Students at McNicholas develop their interests and talents outside of the classroom through a variety of activities and events. From the excitement of musicals to the intensity of Academic Team meets, from the activism of the Ecology Club to the leadership of the Student Council, from the pride of Homecoming to the glamour of prom, our students take part in a wide range of activities that make them feel at home.
